Obfuscation (Stealth Mode)

Add a layer of SSL encryption to your data to make it look like regular web traffic, shielding your VPN use from your ISP.

Obfuscation (also known as Stealth Mode or Scramble) is a specialized technique that hides the fact you are using a VPN at all. While standard VPNs encrypt your data, they still leave a recognizable digital “fingerprint” that advanced firewalls and censors can detect.

Obfuscation works by scrambling or wrapping the VPN data packets so they no longer exhibit the patterns and signatures of a typical VPN protocol (like OpenVPN). Instead, the traffic is disguised, often made to look exactly like regular, unencrypted web traffic (such as standard HTTPS traffic on port 443).

This feature is vital for users who face aggressive censorship or network restrictions:

• Bypass Deep Packet Inspection (DPI): It defeats sophisticated network analysis tools used by governments and ISPs to detect and block VPN connections.
• Access in Restrictive Countries: It ensures a reliable connection in regions with extreme internet censorship (like China, Iran, or UAE) where standard VPNs are blocked.
• Evade Network Blocks: It allows users to bypass strict firewalls in workplaces, schools, or public Wi-Fi networks that intentionally block VPN traffic.
• Prevent ISP Throttling: By hiding the use of a VPN, it prevents your Internet Service Provider from deliberately slowing down your connection speed.

Obfuscation is the ultimate digital camouflage, ensuring your right to privacy and free access is upheld, even when your network is actively trying to prevent it.
